Indie Ale House

Very nice, cozy spot in Toronto; parking was on the street, and was able to find some within 100m from the restaurant. Our Waiter was very awesome, polite, courteous and attentive. I had purchased the Cauliflower Bites, along with the Breakfast Porter to Drink which was Delicious! On our way out; we were going to purchase some drinks to take home and we were approached very rudely by an employee. There were no visible signs up stating anything about not entering or having a maximum amount of people in the designated area of the drinks, nor was anyone there to relay any of the information to us. The general public, who would be browsing looking for drinks to purchase while walking out the door, would have no idea on how to go about purchasing them nor know what the maximum amount of people are allowed to be in the designated area without prior knowledge. It may be worth looking into signs or having someone communicate it prior to leaving, so not everyone is having a very poor, uncomfortable, confrontational experience while exiting the restaurant. People skills go a long way, especially in a restaurant, where customer service should be a priority. This place went from a 5 star to a 1 star, but to be fair; it wasn’t because of the food, but due to the role the individual played while exiting the establishment.

The service was fine, waiters were attentive and refilled our water often. We waited a while before food came out and our meals came out before our starters. We ordered pizza, fries, mac and cheese, a burger, and cauliflower bites. Everything was a smaller serving size than we thought, based on the price. Everything was way too greasy and the fries were way too salty. The only thing that was good was the mac and cheese, but it was a tiny serving plus 2 large pieces of bread. Overall we were very disappointed. It was also a hot day outside and the AC was not on inside, leaving us all sweating as we ate.

Jason our regular server always makes our dining experience enjoyable. Great enthusiasm and prompt service...we aren't big ale drinkers but they accept us anyways..Big foodies we are, and I can tell you that the fried chicken is sinfully delicious and it always brings us back! Great place to kick back and have a memorable time 'Cheers'

Amazing! We went with 4 adults, 2 toddlers and 2 babies. They were so accommodating to us. It was so refreshing to have a restaurant/brew pub be totally ok with us bringing kids. The food was unreal. Spicy butter chicken pizza and the Nashville chicken Sandwich was soooo good. They took amazing care of us. Definitely going back when we are back in the city!
